UART (Technology)

[Abbreviation for "Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter"] The UART is a computer chip that handles the traffic in and out of your serial communication (comm) ports. The UART is a common source of bottlenecks in a computer/modem relationship. Newer computers use the 16550 UART chip which has a 16-bit buffer. This has helped keep pace with today's faster modems.
